Gaza ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement: Disastrous Israeli failure in Gaza

Hamas wins Gaza war, Israel fails to achieve its goals

the former head of the Israeli National Security Council said Sunday:
Palestinian group Hamas has won the Gaza war and prevented Israel from achieving its goals.

"This war was a failure for a very simple reason that Hamas did not only succeed in preventing Israel from achieving its goals, but also remained in power,”

Eiland, who headed the National Security Council from 2004 to 2006 said:
1. the ceasefire deal does not prevent Hamas from rearming.
2. "If Hamas moves against Israel, it will be violating the agreement,"

Eiland was the mastermind of the so-called Generals’ Plan, which calls for imposing a blockade on northern Gaza and forcibly displacing Palestinians from the area as part of Tel Aviv’s genocidal war on the enclave.

In November, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for its war on the enclave.
